Summary

This bill is currently considered to have “no conservation impact (NCI).” Protect New Mexico does not provide a summary for bills that receive a NCI rating. A bill receives an NCI rating when it is viewed to be outside the scope of conservation bills but may be of interest from a political or nonprofit perspective. Bills may also receive a NCI rating if it has a title that sounds like it might involve conservation but in reality does not.

Outcome: HB 224 passed the House (34-29) and died in the Senate Judiciary Committee.
